The Riu Palace Hotel is amazing. The location is beautiful; the five pools are clean, well laid out, and beautiful. The five restaurants are clean, beautifully decorated, and well laid out. The food is diverse and amazing. The staff is helpful without being intrusive. The are willing to do whatever they can to make your stay incredible and are polite while they do it. The rooms are decorated in a modern style with fuschia and purple being the accent colors. The kind size bed is comfortable with lights well laid out around it to be useful. There are multiple bars, including a snack bar, and an area that is open 24 hours with food, drink, TVs, and board games.
The Renova Spa on the property is a must visit. The staff is well trained and helpful. The services are reasonable priced and worth every penny. I highly recommend the Anti-Stress package that includes an 80-minute massage. They have a hair stylist on site that can do amazing things with a brush and blow dryer. I will definitely be returning.

My wife and I went there for our honeymoon and it couldn't have been better. Free food and drinks 24/7 and the staff was amazing. We also were able to do adventure tours from the resort as there were workers from multiple companies on site. Highly recommend to anyone looking to have a relaxing resort experience while also having the option to do fun exhilarating tours like Ziplining, Arenal, and Nicaragua!

Had a nice stay here. We got a 3 bedroom villa with ocean view which was far more spacious than we expected with a big living room, dining room, kitchen and 3 bathrooms. The beach is secluded and due to rocks on either side, extremely difficult for others to get to. The swimming is quite nice and waves are usually calm. The beach sand itself is nice and fine; there are only a few small patches where you step on old seashells and need to wear water shoes. On the left and right side are rocky areas where you can snorkel - no coral but a nice selection of tropical fishes and I saw a stingray too. Beware, these rocky areas are teeming with baby jellyfish so wear a long-sleeve water shirt.
There isn't much to do re: nightlife or other attractions - if that's what you're looking for, go to Playa del Coco. If peaceful relaxation is what you want, come here.
The restaurant is pretty good, although I found their simpler dishes (e.g. the casado, ceviche) much better than their expensive fare.
Some other travellers said it's a long walk to the beach. There are some villas that are quite high up and it's a good 5 min steep walk to get to them; however, ours was lower down and not far at all. Do make sure you know what you are getting for the price you are paying.
